Arkansas Minuteman Meeting Disrupted by LULAC Supporters?

We got this e-mail from Sharon Stark, who apparently attended the Minuteman Organizational Meeting near Hot Springs.....

Still trying to sort it all out to be objective. Very difficult to be objective about being American, one who believes in a Creator God, The U.S. Constitution, Rule of Law and just common sense.
When the three of us saw the cars parked on the side of the road, in the ditches and fields before we got to the Lake Hamilton Fire Station on Highway 290 outside Hot Springs, we knew there was trouble brewing. This would not be the organizational meeting that we had planned on.
People were milling in the parking lot, walking up the highway, looking for the meeting place. The meeting room was way over capacity. Bill Riggins called the meeting to order and immediately order was lost as people began shouting questions. Bill introduced Greg Thompson of the MinuteMan Civil Defense Corp who lives in Oklahoma City. The disorder continued and finally Greg said he would shut the meeting down- just let him finish what he was going to say and then all questions would be answered.
When Charles Cervantes, state director of the Arkansas LULAC chapter, came in the questions turned to shouted remarks such as racists, go home, etc the usual illegal chatter.

But the gist of the remarks were that illegal meant nothing to them. All they were concerned with was more benefits, more entitlements They had an illegal mentality that would continue, in my opinion, if they suddenly became legal. No one even discussed the 2/3 of the illegals that are drug runners, people smugglers, and from terrorists countries.

Suddenly the Sheriff and several deputies came through the door and things quieted down. I understand from an eyewitness that a TV reporter was filming an interview with a woman when she was attacked by a woman who appeared to be Hispanic. Surely we can get a copy of the tape.

Bill closed the meeting to every who was not interested in filling out an application that would include a $50 background check. Many of the harassing crowd remained in the parking lot, but the deputies outwaited them.

The Lake Hamilton Fire Department is out in the middle of the National Forest. If we think there is anywhere safe from the communist/social big government/big business sponsors of the illegals, we are STUPID.

What happened in Maywood and other places can happen in the middle of the forest in Hot Springs.

We are at WAR. We have been invaded. We can identify the ideas of the illegal sponsors but it is difficult identifying individual illegals.

What is our mission? To reclaim America for Americans.
What are our goals? Secure the border; identify and report employers who hire illegals; legislate that identification of citizens are required for drivers licenses, health care entitlements; English as the official language.

To gain our vision and meet our goals, we must have a system that can be replicated across the USA.

We must design and implement the system. Not we editorially, we you, me, our friends, our neighbors, our church, our community.

Now, we don't have much time.

I was there also, it seemed to me that the LULAC supporters were indeed there to disrupt the meeting. Of course they couldnt argue anything point by point, it was allot of emotional diatribe. Simple point we have laws and they are not being enforced. It's really as simple as that. All the other stuff is just ripples in the water.
